From three centres of excellence in Leeds, Hull and Reading, Keston offers a one-day training course on all of its domestic and commercial boilers. Providing a mix of hands-on and theory based classroom learning, each Keston training course has been designed specifically with the heating engineer in mind and courses include discussion with tutors, demonstrations with practical advice and lunch and refreshments are provided.
One-day courses available include High Efficiency Boiler Training, Commercial Boiler Training, Light Commercial Boiler Training and Renewables Appreciation Training. Also available is the comprehensive Vented And Unvented Domestic Hot Water course (Pre-requisite of QCF Aligned Assessments) which aims to help plumbers and heating engineers comply with the appropriate Building Regulations And Standards. This intensive course covers vented and unvented systems and their operating principles, design and installation, maintenance and compliance with other building regulations and covers the technical and legal requirements for unvented QSpa cylinders. The course is followed by completion of three assessments, including one practical, which candidates must pass to gain the BPEC Domestic Hot Water Storage Systems certificate.
All one-day courses can be mixed and matched for individual installation and servicing companies and all include the following: Product Range Overview, Product Specification, Application And Installation Of Products and Component Overview and Change and Repair. All BPEC (British Plumbing Employers Council) courses are designed for the practical new energy engineer and, upon completion of the course, full accreditation will be awarded. These courses are also recognised by all Microgeneration Certification Schemes (MCS).
Each of Keston’s training courses provides installers with the knowledge and skill to install and service Keston boilers in accordance with the manufacturer’s guidelines which, in the case of the Heat boiler range, will ensure the validity of the 5 Year Warranty* now offered. As a result, installers will be well placed to form long-term, mutually beneficial relationships with their customers from initial installation through to servicing.
